Good Week!!

Two of our buddies went home in the last few days...Nigella and Jordan. Nigella's new mom first met her last Monday and then came back to the store on Wednesday and completed an application. She was so anxious to take her home that I made arrangements for her to leave Thursday morning. Fortunately Leona was there cleaning and off Nigella went!

Jordan went home on Sunday. She will be living with a very nice couple in Rio Grande. Jordan was a little nervous when she first met her new parents in the adoption room but after a short time she warmed up. Between being afraid of the family dog and then being brought back to the Shelter can you blame her for being nervous?!!! Good luck, Jordan!

Gemma arrived on Friday. She is beautiful! She is a a couple of years old. She had a litter of kittens last Spring that we placed through a local veterinarian's office. A family with five kids that adopted one of her kittens decided to adopt her as well. The kitten did just fine but Gemma did not fit in. The house was too rambunctious and noisy and she was nervous so they brought her back to us. Please keep this in mind when interviewing potential adopters. She needs to be in a quieter home without small children. Here she is:
